This release of PHPMailer (v5.0.0) sets a new milestone in the
development cycle of PHPMailer. First, class.phpmailer.php has a small
footprint (65.7 Kb), while class.smtp.php is even smaller than before
(at only 25.0 Kb).
<br />
<br />
We have maintained all functionality and added Exception handling unique
to PHP 5/6.
<br />
<br />
There is only one function that has been removed: that is getFile(). The
reason for this is that getFile() became a wrapper for the PHP function
'file_get_contents()' and nothing more. Rather than burden the class
with a function already available in PHP, we decided to remove it.
<br />
<br />
Our new Exception handling provides your own scripts far more power than
ever.
<br />
<br />
We have also enhanced the "packaging" of PHPMailer with an entirely new
set of examples. Included are both basic and advanced examples showing
how you can take advantage of PHP Exception handling to improve your own
scripts.
<br />
<br />
A few things to note about PHPMailer:
<ul>
	<li>the use of $mail-&gt;AltBody is completely optional. If not
		used, PHPMailer will use the HTML text with htmlentities().<br /> We
		also highly recommend using HTML2Text authored by Jon Abernathy. The
		class description and download can be viewed at:
		http://www.chuggnutt.com/html2text but is also bundled with PHPMailer
		in ./extras/ .
	</li>
	<li>there is no specific code to define image or attachment types
		... that is handled automatically by PHPMailer when it parses the
		images</li>
</ul>
A note to users that want to use SMTP with PHPMailer. The most common
problems are:
<ul>
	<li>wrong port ... most ISP (Internet Service Providers) will not
		allow relaying through their servers. If that's the case with your
		ISP, try using port 26.</li>
	<li>wrong authentication information (username and/or password)
		... don't forget that many servers require the account name to be in
		the format of the full email address.</li>
	<li>... if these tips do not get your SMTP settings working, we
		have a debug mode for helping you determine the problem. Insert this
		after $mail->IsSMTP();<br /> $mail->SMTPDebug = 2; // enables SMTP
		debug information (for testing)<br /> note that a setting of 2 will
		display all errors and messages generated by the SMTP server<br />
	</li>
</ul>
Our examples all use an HTML file in the /examples folder. To see what
the email SHOULD look like in your HTML compatible email viewer:
